    I mean that’s exactly me only that my boss and some coworkers who are super nerds keep praising my working-for-only-1-year-now ass so it’s a battle between insecurities and people telling me I’m doing good.

      I have an even bigger problem. I have no reference within my company, I am the one who knows the most about programming, which is why praise is inherently hollow because it comes from people who couldn’t make a proper judgement on that.

      It’s like me praising someone playing the piano. Like, I can tell if I like it, but this goes basically only to the point of recognize if someone just plays very badly or not.
